Descriptions and reviews

Bru (S.V. Pagan) says:

description

A traditional anchorage of long standing, and one of our favourites, due to the proliferation of moorings in recent years I no longer consider the Pyefleet to be a viable anchorage in our 1.7m draft fin keeler. With shoal draft and/or the right tides you may be able to find somewhere to drop the hook but don't bank on it.

Beware of oyster beds that are laid from Pewit Island onwards, taking the ground is not an option unless you want a confrontation with an angry oyster fisherman!

The moorings are operated by the Colchester Oyster Commpany https://colchesteroysterfishery.com/pages/moorings
and can be booked in advance (and usually are in the summer months - don't just pick up a vacant buoy, check for a booking notice attached to it first) at a cost (as of 2025) of £15 a night

Want to know how the wind score works? Then you should read this explanation.

The wind forecasts come from yr.no (Norwegian Meteorological Institute), and was last updated 2 hours and 13 minutes ago (Thursday 19 June 05:19 PM). The next night score shows you the worst hour between 22:00 and 08:00 the next night. We recommend that you check multiple sources for wind forecasts. windy.com is a good website to show larger wind systems.

The safe wind directions for this harbour has been decided by an algorithm, based on how elevated the land around the harbour is. It's mostly correct, but sometimes the underlying data about elevation levels is not good enough to make correct decisions. It's a great help to other if you can validate or adjust the safe wind directions. You can see the data used by the algorithm to decide the safe wind directions by clicking here.
